Skalicious, Issue 1 [1992 Alabama Ska Zine]

Staple-bound self-wraps, 21.5 by 28 cm, 20 pp., illus. Very good with light cover wear. A later wave—or Moon wave—ska zine from Alabama. While there is some local content—including an article about the ongoing problems with racism in Birmingham—most of the content was supplied by or is related to Moon Ska Records. Included are interviews with The Skeletones and Dance Hall Crashers, as well as record reviews and Moon Ska’s release schedule. Moon Ska was a New York-based record company that focused exclusively on ska bands. The label lasted from 1983 until 2000 and was very influential in the U.S. ska scene.
